Safari Tabs

Safari browser management via AppleScript.

Key Scripts

Script	Purpose
`get_tabs.sh`	Get tabs with optional window filtering (TSV/markdown/JSON)
`close_by_pattern.sh`	RECOMMENDED: Close tabs matching URL pattern
`close_tabs.sh`	Close by window,tab index (advanced)
`find_duplicates.sh`	Find/close duplicate tabs
`domain_stats.sh`	Analyze tabs by domain
`export_tabs_*.sh`	Export as JSON/CSV/markdown/HTML
`get_reading_list.sh`	Export Reading List
`get_bookmarks.sh`	Export bookmarks
`search_history.sh`	Search history
`open_urls.sh`	Open URLs from file/stdin

Getting Tabs

get_tabs.sh                    # All tabs as TSV
get_tabs.sh markdown           # All tabs as markdown
get_tabs.sh -w 1 markdown      # Window 1 only
get_tabs.sh -m "term" markdown # Window containing "term"

Closing Tabs

Always use close_by_pattern.sh (finds tabs by URL regardless of position):

close_by_pattern.sh "unique-url-substring"

# Examples
close_by_pattern.sh "adrianroselli.com"
close_by_pattern.sh "/article/css-has-guide"

Closes ALL matching tabs across all windows. Use unique substring.

Alternative: close by position (error-prone, avoid unless necessary):

close_tabs.sh "1,5" "2,3"  # Window,tab pairs (1-indexed)

Analysis Workflow

Fetch: get_tabs.sh markdown
Analyze: group by domain, identify duplicates/clusters, flag stale content
Report: stats, categorized list, suggestions
Act: close with close_by_pattern.sh "url-substring"

Process-and-close pattern:

Fetch tab
Process it
Close: close_by_pattern.sh "unique-url-part"
Next tab

Export Formats

export_tabs_markdown.sh [list|table|checklist|grouped]
export_tabs_json.sh
export_tabs_csv.sh
export_tabs_html.sh > bookmarks.html  # Importable format

Other Features
